6. Code Signing Working Group update
Bruce mentioned that the Code Signing WG discussed about two items. The first item was about SHA1 in the CS BRs that deprecate it at the end of 2020. The WG discussed about advancing this deprecation date to May of 2020.
The second topic was to analyze the differences between the CS BRs and the EV CS requirements in order to identify what are the “EV” differences and what are the other differences that are material or not, so that the two documents could be merged and also in an RFC 3647 format. The WG is still examining these possibilities. Auditors also participated in the call and they stated that they wouldn’t have an issue to update their audit criteria if the requirements were merged into one document.
